Helen O’Keeffe was born in Cork and graduated from Crawford College of Art with a B.A. (Honours) in Fine Art in 2010. Her work is represented in several public collections including the Office of Public Works and Ely Lilly and she has participated in numerous group exhibitions. Her work is also represented in corporate and private collections.

Presently working on a new body of work, her previous work includes those inspired by childhood memories, retrieved from both personal and found imagery, which were used as an initial point of departure. Her concern is not necessarily the recreation of a specific image or moment, but the recreation of something informed by the act of remembering, or her emotional response to her surrounds.
